## Description

Can you solve the robbery on the Mississippi River? You’re a team of investigators traveling the Mississippi on a paddle-wheel steamboat in 1872. Last night there was a robbery. A successful businessman was carrying documents of inestimable value, and now they have disappeared! The captain has asked for your help in finding out who did it, but time is running out. Can you find the culprit before the riverboat docks in New Orleans and the thief escapes into the night? Work together and solve all the puzzles together as fast as you can! Difficulty: 3 of 5

Review: Love these games! They are all clever - each one amazingly different - My husband and I have done 2 real escape rooms and loved them both. During the quarantine I wanted to find something non-electronic that we could do together and a cooperative game sounded like just the thing. We started the EXIT series with the Mysterious Museum (a level 2), then Secret Lab (3 1/2). Since then we’ve also played Pharoah’s Tomb (4) and Sunken Treasure (2) and have Forgotten Island (3) and Forbidden Castle (4) waiting in the wings. Having done four of these games so far, this is what I have to say: We are absolutely AMAZED at the cleverness. I’m particularly amazed that although each game follows the same basic format (i.e. once you’ve played one you will know quickly how to play the rest), each one is completely and utterly different in terms of theme and puzzles to solve. We have seen no duplications of anything, though each game does give you more ideas about how to think for the next one. We time each clue and then enjoy going back over what stumped us. Some puzzles took 1-3 minutes, others took 20-30 minutes or more. On the first game my husband felt we were stuck too long at one point so he went for a clue, but I was sorely disappointed that we did that. Since then we tough it out - NO CLUES! Though after we’ve escaped the room it’s fun to go back and read them. Also - these are one and done games. In other words, once you solve it you won’t want to do that again (unless some time has passed and you have a terribly memory) because it’s one solution - one game. There is no variation if you play it again. BUT... for the price - it’s cheaper than two movie tickets (also one and done) and totally worth it for an evening of entertainment. They say you have to cut/tear/bend and while that’s true we managed to keep each of the games in tact and passed them along to friends. Sometimes it SAYS to cut so we cut and just taped back together. If bending was required we used our imagination so as not to deface the game or give clues to the next players. We were able to make it happen each time. So technically you can pass it along if you want to, but even if you didn’t - like I say - cheaper than going to the movies. How many people? One could do it. Two was perfect for us. MAYBE three, but the caveat is that the pieces are small and can only be looked at by a couple people at a time. If you had a group of 4 or 5, someone will be waiting. Two people is great because the ones I got quickly, he wouldn’t have and visa versa. My only complaint: the writing is quite small on some of the pieces making it really difficult for me to read. My younger-eyed husband didn’t have a problem, but if it were just me the tiny print on some of the cards would have taken away some of the joy. So far we’ve had four great date nights and had a blast. The people who aren’t liking this game obviously just bought the wrong game for them. Go into it understanding and accepting the challenge and you will do just fine. The clues are pretty good and are progressive... so lets say you take a clue and you already had figured that out - it won’t count against you and you have two more progressive clues to check if you’d like. So there is no reason you can’t finish or understand the game. Be patient, clever, and think outside the box (or sometimes inside the box, but I digress...) LOVE.THESE.GAMES. !!!
Review: Best EXIT box game yet! - BEST Exit game yet! My husband, twelve-year-old kid, and I love doing these Kosmos EXIT games. We've played about ten of them and this has been our favorite so far. Highly recommend. What a great way to spend a family afternoon.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best EXIT box game yet!

BEST Exit game yet! My husband, twelve-year-old kid, and I love doing these Kosmos EXIT games. We've played about ten of them and this has been our favorite so far. Highly recommend. What a great way to spend a family afternoon.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fun, but best for ppl who really like solving puzzles
*by W***H on December 12, 2020*

My engineer gaming group (4 ppl, 30 yrs old) took 2 hours to solve this with 3 hints\clues used. It was pretty hard. I'd start with an easier one if you're new to escape rooms. Our 4th engineer decided to quit after 20 mins because none of the solutions we were coming up with made sense to him. The system is very well designed. It definitely feels more like a real escape room than some other escape room board games I've played. Educated guesses are not punished if they're wrong (like some other escape room board games), but rote guessing is also not a real option without feeling like you're cheating. Ckue\hints system was pretty decent too. 3 clues you can take for each puzzle, first one gives what pieces you need to solve the puzzle, second gives hints on how to solve it, and third tells you the solution to the puzzle. This game has one real advantage over in person escape rooms in that there's no real time limit. You can keep going for as long as you want. You don't get kicked out of the room after you fail to complete it within the hour time slot. The only way you can fail this game is by quitting. When you finish, you get a rating based off how long it took to solve and by how many clues\hints you used.
